I LOVE VELCRO

An article by Pastor Micheal Spencer

I LOVE VELCRO…….LOL!

Do you remember the velcro shoes? When I was a child my parents took me to Kmart and made me buy sneakers. The Kmart special at that time was a pair of velcro sneakers. It was amazing how easy it was to put them on and take them off. Come on you know that ripping sound when you separate the two sides. They belong together and that ripping sound lets us know they do not like to be separated.

Deut 30:19-20, I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you lifeand death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; 20 that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.

CLING!

Definition: hard to be removed, to hang on tightly too.

John 15:4, Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.

ABIDE!

Definition: endure, live, dwell.

WE MUST VELCRO OURSELVES TO JESUS!!

I MEAN REALLY MAKE THE DECISION THAT NOTHING AND NOBODY WILL BE ALLOWED TO INFLUENCE US AWAY FROM JESUS.

When we stop abiding and stop clinging there will always be a ripping sound in our lives.
